Iran Claims New Cyber Attack On Its Nuclear Plants, Blames US and Allies

judgecorp writes "Iran has reported that its nuclear facilities are under a sustained cyber attack which it blames on the U.S., UK and Israel. America and Israel created Stuxnet, and have been accused of starting the Flame worm." And once a country admits that it's created such software, publicly deflecting such blame gets a lot harder.

    Given the truth about Pearl Harbor, Vietnam, others including 9/11, it's more likely that the US would do something to its own Pentagon or White House to unite the people against Iran.

    What you said seems to me to deflect attention away from the main issues:

    Another war? You will be poor. Want to be unemployed? Support more deficit spending. War is destructive to economies everywhere. The right things, that make life better, don't get made.

    War investors want war. People like the Bush and Cheney families that have investments in war companies want more war.

    Most violent nation: By some measures, the U.S. government is the most violent that has ever existed (for example, most countries invaded, highest percentage of citizens in prison).

    The U.S. government is not the U.S. people. The U.S. government often engages in secret violence, apparently partly to encourage other violence. Secrecy cannot be democratic, because the people have no power if they don't know what the government is doing.

    Nuclear fuel suppliers want to stop competition. Those who supply uranium fuel for reactors don't want Iran competing with them.

    Jewish destructiveness is not new. Jews haven't gotten along with the surrounding people for the last 3,700 years, according to their own history books.

    Jews want U.S. taxpayers to pay for defending them against the enemies they have made everywhere. If U.S. taxpayers learned how much taxpayer money is given to Israel every year, they would protest.

    Encouraging Jewish violent behavior is anti-Jewish. Those who want war are not being religious. They just want war.
